Media Appearance
This content builds on a television programme broadcast on TVE2, in which international railway signalling projects were discussed in the context of transport infrastructure development.
The programme addressed technical, institutional and operational challenges associated with railway signalling projects in international environments, drawing on professional experience gained in Morocco.
Context
This article presents a railway signalling project developed in Morocco during my previous professional experience, prior to the creation of JBS International Advisory.
The project reflects the type of technical, operational and institutional challenges commonly encountered in international railway signalling initiatives and forms part of the professional background that informs my current advisory work in transport, rail and logistics.
Project Context Discussed During the TV Programme
The project was carried out in an international environment involving multiple stakeholders, including infrastructure managers, technical suppliers and public authorities. It required close coordination between engineering, operations and institutional interfaces to ensure technical feasibility, regulatory alignment and project viability.
Operating in an international context such as Morocco also meant adapting signalling solutions to local operational practices, regulatory frameworks and implementation constraints, while ensuring compliance with international railway standards.
Key Insights from this International Railway Signalling Experience
This experience highlighted several recurring elements that are critical in international railway and signalling projects:
- The importance of early technical and institutional alignment to avoid downstream implementation risks
- The need for clear coordination between stakeholders, particularly in projects involving public authorities and international suppliers
- The role of signalling systems as a strategic component of railway capacity, safety and interoperability, not only as a technical subsystem
- The value of understanding local operational realities alongside international standards and best practices
These insights are highly relevant for organisations developing or expanding railway infrastructure projects in international and emerging markets.
How This Experience Shapes Our Advisory Work
While this project was carried out as part of my previous professional role, it has strongly shaped the expertise and approach I bring today through JBS International Advisory.
The hands-on experience gained in international railway signalling, stakeholder coordination and technical implementation directly informs the advisory services we now provide to clients across Europe, MENA and LATAM, particularly in areas such as project structuring, technical strategy, institutional coordination and international market development.

Why This Experience Matters Today
International transport and railway projects increasingly require a combination of technical expertise, regulatory understanding and strategic coordination across borders. Experiences such as this one provide a practical foundation for supporting organisations as they navigate complex transport systems, develop infrastructure strategies and build sustainable international partnerships.
This professional background continues to inform the advisory work carried out by JBS International Advisory in the fields of transport, rail, logistics and international trade.
